Call For Help Stories

  • Journal Entry for March 27, 2008

    Thursday, March 27, 2008 | A Call For Help story

    I can see it in your eyes,
    Grim prospects, the future's unclear,
    All hope has gone,
    Now all I can see is fear.
    Everything is breaking down,
    Sense of reality:
    Shattered on the ground.
    As you lay there,
    People stop and stare;
    Not lending a hand;
    Not giving a care.
    You're dragging me with you,
    Too much sacrifice have I gone through,
    This is not my way,
    So I can't stay.
    I'm sick of this life,
    Get out...

    I haven't been journaling on DS for a while.
    If any of you recieve Kaye Baileys newsletters for Living After WLS, you may have seen her lates blog from The Neighborhood.  It hit home with me.
    She speaks of support groups and the importance of community and encouragement. We tend to be very active in support groups when things are going well for us. However, when things aren't going wel...

  • HELP :(

    Thursday, April 30, 2009 | A Call For Help story

    I'm not doing so well. I just had a fight with the love of my life and he left. I didn't think it was that big of a fight but I guess in his eyes it was. At first he said he didn't think he was coming home ever. Then after a bit he said he loved me too and will be home after while. But this has been horrible. I hate it when things like this happen. He was angry when he got home becaus...

  • Upset with my son

    Tuesday, May 12, 2009

    I need some help. I am feeling somewhat upset with my son, Matt. He is the son in prison lwop.  I am worrying myself sick at times, I think about him almost continuously.  As I know this is not unusal for a mother/parent in our shoes. My concern is why he will not write even occasionally. I got a letter this Saturday, I got it on Mother's Day from the mail box, so I was so happy and...

    I can't stop cutting.
    Have been cutting everyday now for a week and I just cant stop.
    I had stopped selfharming for years but now Ive given in I cant seem to kick it.
